Gsync, 240 Refresh Rate, HDR, The Works!

AORUS FI27Q-X 27" 240Hz 1440P HBR3, G-SYNC Compatible, SS IPS Gaming Monitor, Exclusive Built-in ANC, 2560 x 1440, 0.3ms Response Time, HDR, 93% DCI-P3, 1x DisplayPort 1.4, 2x HDMI 2.0, 2x USB 3.0
AORUS FI27Q-X 27" 240Hz 1440P HBR3, G-SYNC Compatible, SS IPS Gaming Monitor, Exclusive Built-in ANC, 2560 x 1440, 0.3ms Response Time, HDR, 93% DCI-P3, 1x DisplayPort 1.4, 2x HDMI 2.0, 2x USB 3.0

Pros: - Great for gaming, amazingly high refresh rate- Screen Tear is eliminated thanks to embedded features- Comes with Gsync-HDR-240 Refresh rate-2 HDMI ports and 1 Display port-Active noise canceling built in (no speakers though)A ton of features that ensure you will be able to adjust to your needs-Built in RGB

Cons: -RGB is in the back with none in the front-On that note, RGB Fusion requires an upstream usb cable (provided) in order to work, can still technically work and adjust through the monitor but is very limited- Gsync REQUIRES use of the display port to function, you'll notice your monitor turn from plain to greenish in the windows settings with Gync written on it-Bottom stand can make placement tricky depending on space but they don't protrude beyond the monitor

Overall Review: -Yes I would recommend the product and buy again

Most Critical Review

$60 dollars for not very good

Arcade stool adjustable roller chair seat for cocktail or sit down style arcade games, Black

Pros: Easy assembly

Cons: Easy assembly Gross Broken parts? Limited mobility

Overall Review: I may be out of touch with furniture but I expected better for a $60 stool. Soon as I opened the box pieces of broken plastic sprayed with cheap chrome paint fell out, I still dont know what they are for. The welding looks worse than my high school attempts at welding, and as you can see in the photos it has some sort of rust or something all over it and scratched metal. The poles are greased up something nasty, I dont know if the manufacturer makes these poles for other markets or something. No screw assembly which also means if you go to pick it up the seat will pop off.

Great Laptop, but 20 series was better

Overall Review: Yes I would recommend to a friend.

GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 3090 XTREME 24GB Video Card, GV-N3090AORUS X-24GD

Pros: -Powerful -Sleek design -Customizable LCD screen with neat preset Aorus animation -Quiet -Easy install

Cons: -Wasn't available until after stupid tariffs and price hike -ABSOLUTELY DOWNLOAD Aorus Engine software from Aorus website or RGB Fusion 2.0 will freeze! I didn't see this info anywhere

Overall Review: Aorus Xtreme is an amazing brand, you get 1860 clock speeds that other cards won't as well as added RGB, a nice balance. However keep in mind that RGB software is going to need a delicate touch. Aorus has RGB Fusion 2.0, but they also have Control Center, Aorus Engine, and App center, from my research. Depending on laptop or desktop will depending on which one of these 3 you will use WITH RGB Fusion in order to get it to run (and you WILL need one of them), and usually one of those 3 will have RGB Fusion built in as the case with Control Center. This card is quiet, powerful, and cool looking, if you prefer a card with balance, this is the right card for you, just gotta deal with those stupid tariffs, but I hear the prices are starting to drop, lucky you!

Fun game, great gift to go with purchase

NVIDIA VGA Gift - Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War
NVIDIA VGA Gift - Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War

Pros: It's a great time killer, they seem to be working out the bugs, probably should have put 4 stars but it was a free copy. Lots of different multiplayer options and weapon upgrades.

Cons: Can be buggy at times, you'll get stuck on something you shouldn't or the mic settings will act up AI is a bit cheap in Zombies, yeah they gotta make it challenging but the Zombies seem more interested in just blocking your path and slapping you rather than actually eating you, and not sure logistically how they teleport around as well as they do, you'll run away from the last one and then they'll crawl out of a completely separate area. You may also get stuck on Exfil with a rogue zombie that never appears. This makes the game a bit more frustrating

Overall Review: I would recommend this to other people.
